Pitch DevelopmentBy pitching creative story angles about your event to the local media, we will attempt to secure interviews and press coverage with newspapers and TV stations.

MarqueeYour event will be listed on the Palm Beach County Convention Center's outdoor marquee on Okeechobee Boulevard one week prior to your event. The marquee's prime location on one of the main entrances into downtown West Palm Beach generates more than 97,000 viewable impressions per day. Opportunities for increased exposure available.
